CEO's Secret Pet: Woman, You Can't Escape Even If You Have Wings

Shen Jingyan calmed herself down, trying to focus back on her work, and said, "Boss Mu, let's continue."

Mu Hanchen's face was gloomy, and he obviously hadn't yet fully recovered from the incident. He nodded slightly, signaling Shen Jingyan to start.

Jiang Xiyan was observing everyone's words and expressions from the sidelines, secretly pondering the complexity of the situation.

Shen Jingyan cleared her throat and was about to introduce the plan when Xia Jingyi came back with another document in her hand and said loudly, "Mr. Mu, you also need to review this document. It is a supplementary explanation on the project budget."

Mu Hanchen frowned and said impatiently: "Didn't I tell you to get out?"

Xia Jingyi bit her lip and said stubbornly: "This document is very important and cannot be delayed."

Shen Jingyan helplessly watched the two people in a stalemate and sighed inwardly, thinking that it would be difficult to discuss the work today.

At this moment, Jiang Xiyan came out to smooth things over: "Since the document is important, let's take a look at it first, so as not to delay the important matter."

Mu Hanchen's expression eased slightly, and he took the document and quickly looked through it. Xia Jingyi stood aside, glancing at Shen Jingyan from time to time, her eyes full of provocation.

Shen Jingyan pretended not to see it, thinking about finishing the work quickly and leaving this dangerous place.

After reading the document, Mu Hanchen threw it on the table and said, "Okay, Xia Jingyi, you can go now."

Xia Jingyi snorted coldly, turned and left, but this time she didn't look back.

Shen Jingyan spoke again: "Boss Mu, let's continue discussing the plan?"

Mu Hanchen adjusted his mood and said, "Let's get started."

The atmosphere in the conference room finally returned to normal. Shen Jingyan methodically explained the details of the plan, Mu Hanchen occasionally raised a few key questions, and Jiang Xiyan also expressed some opinions at the right time. After an in-depth discussion and exchange, the general framework of the cooperation plan was finally finalized.

Mu Hanchen stood up and said, "That's all for today. Shen Jingyan can come to my company to discuss the follow-up details." Shen Jingyan and Jiang Xiyan also stood up and shook hands with Mu Hanchen to say goodbye.

After leaving the conference room, Shen Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief and said to Jiang Xiyan, "This was really a negotiation full of twists and turns." Jiang Xiyan smiled and said, "Fortunately, the result is not bad."

Jiang Xiyan said with a puzzled look on his face: "The woman just now said that you pretended to be pregnant to seduce Mu Hanchen, what's going on? Did you also pursue President Mu!"

Shen Jingyan sighed helplessly and explained, "It was just a misunderstanding. Let me explain it to you slowly. The woman's name is Xia Jingyi, and she is Ye Chen's ex-girlfriend. A year ago, Ziyuan told me that his brother's company encountered a major crisis and might face bankruptcy. And this woman left her brother mercilessly at this critical moment. I pretended to be pregnant to seduce Mu Hanchen, just because Ziyuan asked me to do so, to anger that heartless woman. But who would have thought that I would actually cooperate with her boyfriend now. But this is a personal grudge, it shouldn't affect the work!"

Jiang Xiyan narrowed his eyes thoughtfully and said, "It can be seen that Mr. Mu doesn't like that woman, but on the other hand, I think the way he looks at you has a deeper meaning. Does he like you?"

Shen Jingyan blushed and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? We haven't met for a few times, how could you like me? Don't make random guesses here."

Jiang Xiyan's face darkened slightly, and there was a hint of sourness in his voice: "Humph, even if you haven't met a few times, there is no guarantee that he will fall in love at first sight. What's more, he has called you to his company now to discuss this project. This project will take at least half a year to complete. You have to stay in his company for half a year. Will you fall in love with him?"

Shen Jingyan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you want me to fall in love with him?"

The corner of Jiang Xiyan's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with evasive eyes: "Humph, I don't want that. But if you really fall in love with him, that's your freedom. It has nothing to do with me anyway." But his tightly clenched fists exposed his true thoughts.

Shen Jingyan crossed her arms, raised her eyebrows and said, "Maybe, after all, he is very elegant!"

Jiang Xiyan turned his head away and snorted, "This woman is so fickle. She kept saying she liked me a while ago, but now that she has seen Mu Hanchen, she has become so fickle!"

Shen Jingyan approached him and deliberately said, "I'm not your girlfriend. I like you, but don't you always reject me? I'm naturally heartbroken when I'm rejected so many times!"

Jiang Xiyan turned his head suddenly, his eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't allow you to like him!"

Shen Jingyan couldn't help but laugh: "Look at how jealous you are, do you like me?"

Jiang Xiyan's face flushed instantly, and he said stubbornly: "Who is jealous? Today is Grandpa's birthday, let's go back early!"

Shen Jingyan smiled and nodded: "Okay, go back early!"

The two of them drove home together. Along the way, Jiang Xiyan's face was still a little gloomy, and he would secretly glance at Shen Jingyan from time to time, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Arriving at the door of his house, Jiang Xiyan finally couldn't help but hold Shen Jingyan's hand and said, "I thought a lot in the car today. In fact, I like you, but I have never dared to admit it. Seeing you and Mu Hanchen together, I feel very uncomfortable."

Shen Jingyan's eyes flashed with surprise, and she said coquettishly: "Then why did you always reject me before?"

Jiang Xiyan scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm afraid that I'm not good enough and can't give you the happiness you want. But now I don't want to escape anymore."

At this time, bursts of laughter came from the house. The two smiled at each other and walked into the house hand in hand.

"Grandpa, we're back!" Shen Jingyan shouted happily.

At this moment, Jiang Yu Manor was decorated by Jin Sheng, with colorful balloons hanging in every corner and "Happy Birthday" banners on the wall. A large round table was placed in the center, filled with sumptuous dishes and an exquisite double-layer birthday cake.

Friends and relatives gathered around and gave their blessings to Grandpa with a smile.

"Grandpa Jiang, I wish you good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains!"

"Grandpa, you are getting stronger and stronger. Happy birthday!"

Jiang Xiyan took Shen Jingyan to his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I wish you a happy birthday and may you be happy every day!"

Shen Jingyan also said sweetly: "Grandpa, I wish you good health and longevity!"

Grandpa smiled from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'm happy to see you two like this!"

Everyone took their seats. Jiang Xiyan lit the birthday candles for grandpa. As the candlelight flickered, everyone sang the birthday song together.

Grandpa closed his eyes, made a wish, and then blew out the candle.

The dinner started, everyone enjoyed the food and laughed happily. The children played around, and the adults chatted about family matters, creating a warm and joyful atmosphere.

Jiang Xiyan picked up food for Shen Jingyan from time to time, his eyes full of tenderness.

Shen Jingyan also thoughtfully served soup to her grandfather and took care of him.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone started to perform to celebrate Grandpa's birthday. Some sang, some danced, and some told interesting stories.

Grandpa looked at the lively and joyful scene in front of him, his eyes full of happiness and satisfaction.

At the end of the year, according to convention, every company has to customize exquisite flower baskets to attend the grand annual meeting. Shen Jingyan and Jiang Xiyan had just finished discussing the crucial project, so they stopped going to the company and stayed busy in their own flower shop!

At this moment, he suddenly saw Ye Ziyuan's brother Ye Chen walking into his flower shop. As soon as Xiaolan saw a customer coming in, she immediately ran over to greet him enthusiastically.

The flower shop's business was particularly prosperous today, with a constant stream of people ordering flowers, so many that it was hard to cope with them, and the staff seemed a little stretched. Otherwise, Shen Jingyan would probably still be busy working in Jiang Xiyan's company.

Shen Jingyan was very thoughtful. She keenly noticed that Ye Chen's eyes were full of special feelings when he looked at Xiaolan. It was obvious that he was attracted to Xiaolan. So Shen Jingyan found an appropriate and reasonable reason to let Ye Chen stay and help.

After a whole day of hard work, all 1000 bouquets of flowers customized by customers were finally completed. Shen Jingyan felt relieved and said to Ye Chen happily: "Ye Chen, can you help me send Xiaolan back? Yu Chi is on a business trip, Ziyuan is alone in the villa, I want to go and accompany Ziyuan now."

Ye Chen answered without hesitation: "This sister is in a sensitive period now, you go and accompany her, I will take good care of Xiaolan!"

Shen Jingyan said with a smile on her face, "Goodbye!" and then ran away like a gust of wind.

Ye Chen looked at Xiaolan, who made his heart beat fast, and mustered up the courage to invite her to a nearby restaurant for a warm dinner.

After dinner, they walked out of the restaurant together and came to a towering bridge. They stood side by side on the bridge, overlooking the wide road with heavy traffic below, colorful neon lights flashing on both sides of the road, and the bustling and noisy crowds!

Ye Chen looked at the prosperous scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "Life often leaves us scarred and bruised. I really don't know when such days will end."

Xiaolan said softly, "Don't be so pessimistic. In the end, those parts that were once injured will become our strongest parts. This is the only way to grow."

Ye Chen's eyes revealed a hint of doubt: "Is it really like this? I only feel pain and confusion now."

Xiaolan looked determined and encouraged, "Believe me, it will happen. Just like the species that survive are not the strongest or the smartest, but those that respond most quickly to changes. We must also learn to adapt and change quickly in difficult situations."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and responded: "Well, I hope so. Then let's work together to face the challenges of life."

Xiaolan smiled and said with full strength: "Okay, come on!"

After a short pause, Ye Chen mustered up his courage and said affectionately: "Xiaolan, I fell in love with you at first sight. I like you. Do you like me?"

Xiaolan lowered her head and said with a little self-abasement: "I'm afraid I'm not worthy of you. Do you know my experience?"

Ye Chen looked determined, held Xiaolan's hand tightly and said, "I know you were hurt by your ex-boyfriend, but I don't care about your past. What I want is your future!"
